I was bored and was looking at the new for 2001 on rcdb.com and found this ride. Look how long the trains are. It says it is at least 17 cars per train!Here is a link:http://rcdb.com/installationgallery1487.htm?Picture=1

That is no big deal, quite common among family rides. This ride here at SFWoA, which I have been on, has 20 cars per train.http://rcdb.com/installationgallery634.htm?Picture=3

Oh I have never seen that before I thought it was very odd, but I geuss not!

Pepsi Ripsaw at Knott's Camp Snoopy has 15 cars per train. All 3 of these rides are Zierer, so I guess it's just the way they build rides. Rediculouly long trains!

Yeah, that does look really strange to me too... seeing so many cars on a train!

Hmm... I really didn't know any different on kiddie coasters. On Zierer coasters it must just be the norm then. How many trains on Spacely's Sprocket rockets?

by **CoasterDave316** on January 29th, 2003, 2:03 pm

Spacleys has 8 tiny cars.

Well what company makes it? Are there other companies that make little kids rides other than Zierer and Vekoma?

by **coastrcorey** on January 29th, 2003, 7:23 pm

Yeah! There are a lot of other companies I beleive... I just don't know their names...

by **goldmember** on February 4th, 2003, 4:59 pm

I think Vekoma makes Spacely's.

by **coastrcorey** on February 4th, 2003, 5:05 pm

Yep, they sure did!

by **joker** on February 5th, 2003, 4:32 pm

lol, it looks pretty funny with all those cars on...

by **coasterzak** on February 5th, 2003, 4:54 pm

Yeah they should definitely break that up into two trains so it doesn't take so long to load the one train.

by **joker** on February 6th, 2003, 4:25 pm

also, that looks like a kiddy ride...so who knows...

by **linebacker131** on February 25th, 2003, 7:12 pm

my question is how it makes it back over the hill it has to be going pritty fast

by **coasterzak** on February 25th, 2003, 10:02 pm

It's not that big of a hill... the momentum keeps it going just like any other coaster.
